We want to encourage and help more
farms make use of performance data in the daily routine to generate more pounds
and pence on the bottom line.

Keeping performance records and
investing time in interpreting them is a priority for high-performing pig
businesses.

National herd performance data for
producers are updated every quarter at: www.bpex.org.uk/prices-facts-figures/
The online tables show how the industry’s performance is progressing towards
the Two-Tonne Sow target and enable producers to compare their own figures.

Contact the knowledge transfer team
for help and information on recording:

The English pig industry is a relatively high cost producer relying on a price premium to remain competitive.

The strategic challenge, therefore, is to improve our physical performance on farm to be more cost-efficient. This is where the Knowledge Transfer team concentrates its efforts, in helping to 'close the gap' with competitors in Europe.
